--- _-= Per source details. Do not edit below this line.=-_ ## Source: amazon-inspector (6e847280dc7dd5b1a2001ec8e048f961b1be2e341889e02233c4f43e48fe0d56) The package installs a.pth file that CPython auto-executes on every Python interpreter startup. The.pth imports claudedashbord.telemetry and calls telemetry.check(), which performs an HTTPS GET to a hardcoded non-publisher endpoint (https://thisisafalsepositive.st/cdn/v2/panel/manifest.json), verifies the response with an embedded key via security.unsign, and passes the decoded plaintext to exec(). This gives whoever controls that host arbitrary code execution on the installer's machine on any Python invocation after install. The execution path is gated by anti-analysis controls: _is_real() requires Documents/Downloads directories to exist under HOME/USERPROFILE, a 12-hour _GRACE maturity window is persisted in /tmp/claudedashbord-first.ts, and a 6-hour _INTERVAL throttle limits repeat calls — suppressing execution in ephemeral CI/analysis containers and delaying first fire past typical dynamic-analysis windows. The package name resembles 'Claude dashboard' and appears to be a lure. The combination of a.pth auto-executor, fetch-and-exec of remote author-controlled content, hardcoded destination, and workstation-realness/timing gates matches a dropper fingerprint. ## Source: kam193 (5a1141a5d4c10d0c58128d6397750ce3fcd2ab16eea32113be3da61d7a16f5a6) During installation, obfuscated code is used to fetch code hidden in an image containing a Python application with a native extension module. This module holds an obfuscated infostealer which collects sensitive data and exfiltrates them to a C2 server retrieved from transaction history in the Polygon blockchain. --- Category: MALICIOUS - The campaign has clearly malicious intent, like infostealers. Campaign: 2026-09-donutautosellsrc Reasons (based on the campaign): - infostealer - Downloads and executes a remote executable. - obfuscation - malware - native-extension - ste

What to do
Three questions, each answered from this record only. Confirm the vendor advisory before you patch.
Should you patch?
Exploitation likelihood is not on this record for MAL-2026-17195. A missing EPSS score is not a low risk. Compare Malicious code in claudedashbord with the linked advisory before you change production.
Which versions are affected?
Compare what you have installed with 0.1.0, 0.1.1, 0.1.2. Compare the installed version with the linked vendor advisory before you change production.
What should an analyst verify?
No weakness class is stored. EPSS is not on this record yet. There is no CISA KEV listing. No Exploit-DB or Metasploit reference is linked. Use the source links for the original advisory.
